Communication Immersion Workshop
2022-04-11 09:00 - 2022-04-12 16:00 (America/Los_Angeles)
Whether you pitch for business, raise money for your favorite non-profit, or want to be seen as a thought leader on the global stage, this Eloqui workshop provides the necessary tools.
Over two days, a select group of seasoned professionals come together to learn new skills and find their voice. With a maximum of 8 attendees, everyone is up-on-their-feet multiple times, with the opportunity to hear from their peers, as well as the trainers, and make adjustments to ensure success.
Our next workshop will be held at the La Fonda hotel in Santa Fe, New Mexico from 9-4:00 pm. We limit attendance to 8 for maximized personal attention. The workshop fee (including all meals and materials) is $3,000. Plus, we’ve negotiated an Eloqui nightly room rate of only $159 when their rates this time of year are usually $250.
Your fee includes a specially prepared dinner the first night of the workshop. Local chef, Johnny Vee creates a memorable experience, whipping up a delicious 4-course meal. Have a glass of champagne, wine and appetizer, learn about New Mexico cuisine, watch the sunset and relax.

The first day of the workshop is focused on creating a make-or-break presentation, incorporating the critical elements of structure and delivery…
The second day is all about communication skills, rehearsal techniques and impression management: what you project, and how to engineer the perception you want. The agenda also covers how to read and respond to any audience, and advanced techniques from the professional’s playbook to becoming an engaging speaker.
Here’s what past ‘graduates’ had to say:
Words cannot describe my gratitude to you both. You are the 8th wonders of the world. And I am beyond grateful to have experienced your supernatural gifts. Than you from the bottom of my heart for your sincerity and guidance.
Dr. Tina Shenouda

The Eloqui workshop was the most impactful professional development activity I’ve experienced in my fifteen years as a lawyer. I’m not prone to hyperbole, but I genuinely believe it will be a turning point in my law practice as it relates to public speaking and communication. I strongly recommend Eloqui to any professional who wants to take his or her public speaking and communication skills not just to the next level, but into the stratosphere.

Thanks again for an amazing workshop! The entire experience was exhilarating, supportive, warm, fun (a little scary) and highly productive. The tools are fantastic but the energy you two brought to the workshop was where the real magic happened. I couldn’t have done it with anyone else.

As an attorney, I do a LOT of public speaking. I gravitated toward Deborah and David, and I was blown away at how their Santa Fe workshop elevated me to the next level! I spoke at a local Rotary club recently, and never had a better reception to the presentation, even after doing it for more than 20 audiences. What I didn’t expect was the impact it had on me: this was the most fun I have ever had giving the presentation since I start speaking on the topic several years ago.

Your 2-day immersion class was wonderful and immensely helpful! I learned so much in a relatively short time frame and there was dynamic synergy with all of the class members!

Thank you for the exceptional workshop! Truly transformational content and immersive experience!
Karen Casillas
Fiduciary Investment Advisor with CapTrust
As an attorney who often speaks at conferences and on panels, I was already pretty comfortable with public speaking but I wanted to further develop my skills and “kick it up a notch.” Pound for pound – Eloqui’s workshop was the best investment of time and money that I’ve ever made in my training/development.
Deborah and David far exceeded my expectations and their insights will last a lifetime. This powerful course gives you the tools to be more authentic and impactful in your interactions, both in public and in private. I will be singing Eloqui’s praises for decades to come!

Communication Immersion Workshop
2024-02-05 09:00 - 2024-02-06 16:00 (America/Denver)
Whether you pitch for business, raise money for your favorite non-profit, or want to be seen as a thought leader on the global stage, this Eloqui workshop provides the necessary tools.
Over two days, a select group of professionals and executives come together to learn new skills and find their voice. With a maximum of 8 attendees, everyone is up-on-their-feet multiple times, with the opportunity to hear from their peers, as well as the trainers, and make adjustments to ensure success.
Our next workshop will be held at the famous La Fonda hotel in Santa Fe, New Mexico from 9-4:00 pm. We limit attendance for maximized personal attention. The workshop fee (including all meals and materials) is $3,000. Plus, we’ve negotiated an Eloqui nightly room rate of $179 when their rates during this period are $250 and above!
The first day of the workshop is focused on creating a make-or-break presentation, incorporating the critical elements of structure and delivery…
The second day is all about communication skills, rehearsal techniques and impression management: what you project, and how to engineer the perception you want. The agenda also covers how to read and respond to any audience, and advanced techniques from the professionals’ playbook to becoming an engaging speaker.
Your fee includes a specially prepared dinner on Monday, February 5th. Local chef, Johnny Vee creates a memorable experience, whipping up a 4-course meal right outside of town. Have a glass of champagne, wine and appetizers, learn about New Mexico cuisine, watch the sunset, and relax.
Stay an extra few days. This is premiere time to enjoy the high desert and all the tourists have gone! You can hike up Santa Fe peak or drive up to Taos… Visit the art galleries on Canyon Road… Hike Ghost Ranch where Georgia O’Keefe lived and painted… Go to museums, concerts or visit Tent Rocks, Via Caldera and Bandelier to see where the cliff dwellers lived.
You can fly into Santa Fe (via Phoenix, Dallas or Denver), or directly into Albuquerque and either rent a car, carpool, or take a shuttle to Santa Fe! If you fly into Santa Fe, we’ll pick you up and drop you off at the hotel.
Here’s what past ‘graduates’ had to say.
Thank you for a fabulous workshop. This was by far the most informative workshop that I have attended. I definitely gained a lot of insight into communication and public speaking and tools that I can use right away both personally and professionally.

Thanks again for an amazing workshop! The entire experience was exhilarating, supportive, warm, fun (a little scary) and highly productive. The tools are fantastic but the energy you two brought to the workshop was where the real magic happened. I couldn’t have done it with anyone else.

Words cannot describe my gratitude to you both. You are the 8th wonders of the world. And I am beyond grateful to have experienced your supernatural gifts. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your sincerity and guidance.

I never thought I would say this, but I am looking forward to getting outside my comfort zone, safe in the knowledge that I now have the tools and resources to succeed. I have never met better trainers, nor have I attended sessions that are as fun, practical, and inspiring.

The Eloqui Communications training gave me hands-on tools and lots of practice and feedback. Deborah and David’s seasoned expertise, memorable advice, and the interactive quality of the workshop was truly transformational, inspirational and fun. I’m eager to use what I learned right away to connect and engage with a variety of audiences and situations.

The Eloqui workshop was the most impactful professional development activity I’ve experienced in my fifteen years as a lawyer. I’m not prone to hyperbole, but I genuinely believe it will be a turning point in my law practice as it relates to public speaking and communication. I’m amazed at the number of skills and concepts you taught me in two days. I’ve already started to put those skills and concepts to good use in my practice. I never again want to give a presentation the way I used to… I strongly recommend Eloqui to any professional who wants to take his or her public speaking and communication skills not just to the next level, but into the stratosphere.
Brian Moskal

Words cannot express my gratitude for the incredible experience I had at the Eloqui training. The entire thing was so beneficial for my skills, knowledge, and confidence. I am a trial/kinesthetic learner, so having to get up in front and present was absolutely the best. You and David made it OK to try things, make mistakes, and learn in a supportive environment.

Ten of my law firm’s attorneys and staff have attended Eloqui’s Immersion Training and Workshops, and each has come back excited from what they had learned. They implement and use Eloqui’s innovative training and skills in order to better meet and communicate with clients from around the world in addition to lecturing and presenting at international conferences and symposiums. As an attorney, I benefit from Eloqui’s training every day. I’ve been able to better understand and adjust my communication skills with clients and colleagues so that my daily business runs more smoothly.

Best presentation training I have ever received.

Thank you so much for a GREAT 2 days! I have never been so entertained, had so much fun and learned so much at any training. While I normally struggle to keep my eyes open after lunch, your program kept me constantly engaged. Because of your training, I will never again look at speaking or other speakers the same way!
Leigh Harris
Inside Sales Trainer, ADP Dealer Services
As an attorney, I do a LOT of public speaking. I gravitated toward Deborah and David, and I was blown away at how their Santa Fe workshop elevated me to the next level! I spoke at a local Rotary club recently, and never had a better reception to the presentation, even after doing it for more than 20 audiences. What I didn’t expect was the impact it had on me: this was the most fun I have ever had giving the presentation since I start speaking on the topic several years ago.

Your 2-day immersion class was wonderful and immensely helpful! I learned so much in a relatively short time frame and there was dynamic synergy with all of the class members! Thank you for the delicious dinner. Johnny Vee was an added treat and his cooking and personality are unbeatable! I look forward to continuing to work with you.
